    DIRECTV ultimate free 3 month offer

    Got a “special offer for you” on channel 9758, up to 3 months of DIRECTV ultimate movie package. Went to the website and the offer didn’t work. Has anyone gotten this offer to work?

    The Movie Channel

    Thank you! At this point will probably just do Showtime/Paramount+ package, although TMC often has some rare movies you can't even find on streaming.

    The Movie Channel

    Can you get The Movie Channel on its own or do you need to first subscribe to Showtime? Had a hard time explaining this to the call center. They kept thinking we wanted the movies extra pack!

    HR 54 client install

    Sorry for the delay. We have a HR 54 sitting by itself (no TV) and two receivers, C61K-700 and an old HD receiver. Directv is saying we need to pay for the two receivers and will not authorize the "extra" HD one since we have the HR 54. In this case, should we just hook the server to the second...

    Trying to add an extra client to an HR54. Can I deauthorize the server or will that not let the client work?

    Moving HR54 server

    Yep, the 4k mini genie is going to the second floor. Believe the H54 is self powered, since there’s no power supply like that. We called for a Gemini but they offered the C61K instead! Thanks all, we’ll probably just swap the two on the outside splitter.

    Moving HR54 server

    Directv installed our main HR 54 on our second floor and we want to move it to the basement to use a 4K genie mini. Can we simply swap the positions of the two wires on the outside splitter so the powered one goes to the basement? Is that safe since it’s grounded? They wanted at least $49 to...

    Directv Satellite Protection Plan - Cancellation Issue

    Added protection plan to D* Sat account and cancelled online. They kept billing for several months even after trying to cancel each month online and getting confirmation emails. Finally called customer service and they refunded one month! Now that ST is gone, will likely be paying the ETF and...

    Adding 4k channels to Directv satellite service

    No, we are just going to wait until the 2 year upgrade period is over instead of paying $104 or $299. It's disappointing the tech didn't use the 4K boxes at the start!

    Adding 4k channels to Directv satellite service

    Thanks! We called back a second time and they said they would now add the 4K box for $104 and not $299. We’ll try with the genie mini.

    Adding 4k channels to Directv satellite service

    Called customer service to add 4K channels. The rep didn’t seem to know this was an option and then tried to get me to pay $299 for a new Genie. We were told we had the newest genie. The current receiver is a HR54. Does anyone know how to add 4k?

    Sunday ticket issues today

    Thanks, we will try after the free month. The tech said the dish was just misaligned, maybe knocked out of alignment by wind. He said the numbers were reading low and he got them up to the high 90% signal strength. Glad they came out the next day!

    Sunday ticket issues today

    Most of the satellite Sunday Ticket channels were showing error 771 for us today. Any one else have issues? Saw a few people reporting the same issue on Twitter… Called Directv and they said it would be $99 for a tech to come out. The support guy said he “didn’t want us to pay that much” so it...
